Israelis rally against judicial reform for 18th week straight

Demonstrations continue unabated as the controversial legislation remains on hold while President Isaac Herzog is holding talks in hopes for a compromise.

Tens of thousands of Israelis took to the streets Saturday to protest against the proposed judicial reform for the 18th consecutive week.

The protests have been held on a weekly basis for most of the year and they continued despite Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu announcing in March that he was postponing the proposals to reach a compromise agreement.
